Funny thing is, Trump hasn't even done nor said a damned thing against black people! .... except INCREASE FUNDING to HBCUs like Howard! Remember the infamous Megan Kelly photo?


"White supremacy" is the natural progression of racist--->white privilege--->white supremacy narratives. The next step, that we're seeing now, is "Nazi".... I don't know what is after that. Used to be making comparisons to Hitler and Nazis had your argument disqualified under Godwin's Law....but not so anymore. Now anything and anybody to the right of Pol Pot is a racist white supremacist Nazi and/or sympathizer.

Maybe the unhinged left will resurrect the black power rhetoric of fighting white people because they're demons and sub-humans created by the devil in a laboratory to destroy the flourishing and technologically advanced kingdoms of sub-Saharan Africa who had to teach Europeans how to use soap.



If "white supremacy" were a thing that minorities actually had to fear, someone should explain why minorities in majority-white countries are treated better than minorities in places where "people of color" are the majority.

My new rule for dealing with POC: You don't get to ask me to self-reflect on **** unless places where people who look like you are the majority treat minorities in their midst better than "white people" do in "white" countries. You get treated the same by me no matter what your inherent, immutable characteristics are, and that's it. That's what we all strive for, and that's what I will work towards. Any of the other "critical race theory," post-modern racial bull****? Keep it to yourself or sell it to the self-hating white liberal idiots who are ashamed of themselves. They consume it like it's crack.

A person was the victim of assault and theft. That is indefensible (well, except by some folks on here).
Even worse in my view, their free political speech was stifled under the threat of violence and they were discriminated against.

Some question the motives of these two girls who support our President. I condemn the actions and motives of those who oppressed the girls.

Yes that is my rule for the so-called "people of (royal) color" worldwide. You're not welcome and our suspect in America and the west until you show parity and reciprocity to whites or other minorities within the midst of your majority. They do not.

Howard University students have no time for white supremacists and neo-nazi sympathizers on our campus. Good riddance.
That's the tweet from the NAACP Howard U chapter to all of this.

Stunning. Absolutely stunning.
and there we have it.

all one need do to be a white supremacist neo-Nazi sympathizer, according to 'America's black Harvard', is wear a hat saying 'make America great again'

stunning indeed.

I would expect that statement by the NAACP to come from BLM but isn't the NAACP suppose to be "well-respected" and "mainstream"?

Apparently not.

Crickets from the mainstream media on the NAACP releasing that tweet.

Well, everyone knows No_Recess hates people of color.

What's up with the 'back community will beat your ass if they don't like your political views' theme we're seeing in this thread?

I'm sure some will claim she's lying, in order to maintain the narrative that she had a nefarious motive, but if they would give the same benefit of the doubt to her that they want to be given to 16-year-olds doing far worse things, this wouldn't be an issue.

Girl speaks out about wearing MAGA hat and Trump shirt
yeah, we've already seen plenty of accusations of that.

Tours entail learning a little at every stop. So when they stopped at HU if they really were on a tour, the guide would have said something about it being an HBCU.

The tour you took of DC, if they stopped at an institution of historical significance or a specific college, didn't they give you a quick summary of that institution or mention someone famous who went there?

That is how tours work and that is why I don't believe their account. I think if they were on a tour, it was probably with a group that sought to cause a scene on campus. When kids go on a tour anywhere there is usually a dress code. My nephew I mentioned, he has gone on a few tours and recently returned from an academic camp. All of their material on "what to wear/attire" state that students aren't allowed to wear political or inappropriate clothes or have messages on them. I mentioned today that people are "soft." They are like this because they don't want to be sued. The girls stated their tour was in association with the federally funded "Talent Search" program unless there is another program called Talent Search that I am not aware of. Those tours have similar instructions about a dress code.

I cannot imagine any chaperones for a DC tour taking kids to any college and letting them wear anything that could be construed to be political or inappropriate messages on their shirts/hats. So it is a fishy story to me.

In regards to learning about black history, the tour should have taught them black history. I can recommend a black history tour in DC that is pretty good if people are interested. Most general tours there that include places of significance for black Americans, do mention some aspect of black history.

I did not pay for a "tour" of DC. I rode my Harley there to take part in "rolling Thunder
' and to pay my respects at the war memorials and Arlington National Cemetary............Also walked by the White house and visited the Smithsonian............Library of Congress was closed
